Hello everyone, I have been asked by our local Mercy sisters to help them check the ship/boat that their sisters arrived on in Cooktown from Sydney on 25 June 1888. It may have been Aramac or Elamang both mentioned in different places which is why a check is needed. I have suggested local papers. Are there local shipping lists as there are for overseas arrivals? Or can someone offer another suggestion. Time is of the essence as this info. is required for a project in Cooktown. I would appreciate any help in this matter. Thany you Lorraine

I have not been able to find any record of this ship,has anybody ever heard of it please? sec

I am sorry but could I trouble someone to tell me how I can delete my name/email address. I have tried! Reason is that although I am interested in the subject matter, I am unable to access my mailbox frequently and it therefore becomes full. Thankyou someone!

National Archives of Australia should have a passenger list for this ship they have offices in all States but dont know if passenger arrival info for the whole of Australia is available at each office. I suspect not.
